Public Works Asset Management Software

Public works answers to residents, councils, and auditors at once. Track Star's public works asset management software tracks vehicles, heavy equipment, and infrastructure in one system, so crews are ready when weather hits and records hold up afterward.

Answer For Every Asset The Department Owns

Track Star holds the location, condition, usage, and service history of every public works asset in one platform. Streets, water, sanitation, and fleet maintenance record against the same asset instead of keeping separate logs that only get reconciled when something goes wrong.

That record does double duty. Day to day, supervisors know which equipment is available and what is due for service. During an event, dispatchers see where every plow and crew is in real time, and when the storm clears, the department has the documentation to justify overtime, back a reimbursement claim, and show residents what was actually done.

ACROSS THE DEPARTMENT

What You Can Track

Heavy Equipment & Machinery

Loaders, backhoes, excavators, graders, and compactors used for road work, excavation, and construction projects across the department.

Snow & Storm Response Fleet

Plows, salt and sand spreaders, brine units, and response trucks that carry the department through winter and severe weather events.

Street & Sanitation Vehicles

Dump trucks, sweepers, refuse and recycling trucks, and vacuum trucks running scheduled routes across the service area.

Water & Sewer Infrastructure

Hydrants, valves, lift stations, pump stations, and manholes tied to inspection schedules and long-term condition records.

Tooling, RRight-Of-Way & Roadway Assetsigging & Outage Tools

Signs, signals, streetlights, guardrails, and pavement markings that carry inspection obligations and liability exposure.

Shared & Portable Equipment

Generators, trailers, message boards, pumps, and traffic control gear that move between yards, crews, and job sites.

Why Public Works Need Asset Management Software

Public works asset management software protects equipment the community depends on and produces the documentation the department is held to. Track Star ties every asset to a live record, so crews get equipment that runs, supervisors deploy it where it matters, and the department walks into budget season with evidence.

• Storm and snow response coordinated with live equipment locations
• Fewer breakdowns mid-route through proactive, usage-based maintenance
• Documented inspections on hydrants, signals, signs, and right-of-way assets
• Shared equipment tracked as it moves between yards and crews
• Records that support FEMA claims, audits, and council reporting
• Replacement requests backed by real hours, mileage, and repair cost

How Track Star Works

Track Star connects to department assets with whatever suits each one. Plows, dump trucks, and heavy equipment report location, engine hours, condition history, and diagnostics through OEM telematics, existing modems, or GPS devices. 

Powered assets report on their own rather than waiting for a crew member to fill out a form at the end of a shift. Fixed infrastructure and non-powered equipment attach to the same maintenance and inspection history in the same system.

Supervisors, fleet maintenance, and administration all pull from one dashboard covering location, service status, utilization, and lifecycle cost. Fleet telematics and enterprise asset management live in the same platform instead of two systems that never quite line up.

Built For Departments That Report To The Public


For more than 25 years, Track Star has supported public agencies managing large, mixed collections of vehicles, equipment, and infrastructure. Public works sits squarely in that world, where the budget is public record, service failures reach the news, and every purchase invites a question at the next council meeting.

The platform combines GPS tracking, enterprise asset management, maintenance, and compliance reporting in one system. It stays hardware-agnostic, works with the telematics and modems departments already run, and scales from a small municipality to a county operation spread across many yards.

Departments rely on Track Star to hold fleets, heavy equipment, and infrastructure under one roof, with the documentation that public accountability requires.

Frequently asked questions

Does Track Star track all kinds of infrastructure?

Yes. Hydrants, valves, lift stations, signals, streetlights, and signs are tracked alongside the fleet. Fixed assets tie to inspection schedules, condition reports, and maintenance history, so a department manages buried infrastructure and rolling stock in one system rather than two.

Will it work with the equipment we already have?

Track Star is hardware-agnostic. It reads OEM telematics, existing vehicle modems, OBDII, BLE tags, and third-party sensors, so trucks and equipment across different manufacturers and model years run in the same platform without replacing what is already installed.

Can other departments see our asset data?

Access can be scoped by site or group, so streets, water, and sanitation see the assets they are responsible for. Shared equipment stays visible to the crews who need it without opening the full department record to everyone.

Does it work at remote sites with poor cell signal?

Yes. Track Star supports satellite alongside cellular, so equipment working rural roads, outlying yards, or areas that lose coverage during storms keeps reporting location and condition data the same way assets in well-covered areas do.

Can crews update records from the field?

Yes. Supervisors and field staff work from mobile access rather than routing everything through the yard office. Service status and asset records stay current where the work happens, instead of waiting on paperwork at the end of a shift.
